ILUW Local 10, The Shipping Backlog & The Working Class with ILWU Local 10 Pres Trent Willis
– video made by the YouTube channel with the logo in the video’s upper left hand corner. OaklandNewsNow.com is the original blog post for this type of video-blog content.
ILWU Local 10 president Trent Willis looks at the backlog of shipping on the West Coast and reports that the backlog of ships has ended at the Port of Oakland. He asks why at the 9th largest port in the US, ocean carriers are refusing to use the port to unload container ships with 70 to 80 ships backing up in the ports of LA?
He also discusses the growing working class anger with a growing strike wave building up throughout the US and the growing dangers of a fascist movement in the US. The issue of privatization of the Port of Oakland and gentrification is also a focus and Willis reports that longshore workers cannot afford to live in San Francisco and Oakland and many have to commute from the Sacramento area driving hundreds of miles to go to work while million dollar condos are being built in Oakland and San Francisco.
This interview was done on 10/14/21.

Note from Zennie62Media and OaklandNewsNow.com : this video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. What we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a YouTube channel. When the video is “liked” by Zennie62 YouTube, then it is automatically uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Now site and Zennie62-created and owned social media pages. The overall objective here, on top of our is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours – is the use of the existing YouTube social graph on any subject in the World. Now, news is reported with a smartphone and also by promoting current content on YouTube: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary, or having a camera crew to shoot what is already on YouTube. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
